hello,

I'm a masters student in Canada. I'm also studying freshwater ecology and I'm just starting out. I'd like to know if you have any method of separating algae from the zooplankton from stream water that are collected from the field.

Thanks! Jessica

Well Jessica, if you email me, I can pass along your question (email) to the instructors and the resident marine biologist, who may can help answer your question. I found no contact information.
